Let Me create a better life. A life that makes me proud. A life that makes me happy. A life where I use my precious energy to enjoy every single moment I will have.

Chasing the potential means you know something isn’t right and you’re ignoring the truth.

Instead of expecting other people to change, demand the change of yourself. Hold yourself to a higher standard and stop allowing this type of emotionally immature behavior to be your responsibility to manage.

People will have negative opinions about you no matter what you do.

“hoping someone will change is what keeps you trapped in a relationship with someone who is emotionally immature or worse, emotionally abusive.”

You are giving other people’s opinions too much power.

People can only meet you as deeply as they’ve met themselves. Most people haven’t gone to therapy, haven’t looked at their issues, and they don’t want to.

Don’t ever let it be you that’s disappointed. And don’t let guilt drive your decisions.

One reason why it’s so challenging to navigate these types of situations is because you both believe you are right.
